Correctly used, PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) reduces but does not eliminate the possibility of  infection.  Hand hygiene measures should be used in addition to the use of PPE.  Protective equipment should be worn and removed in the correct order.  Don PPE in this order: gown/suit, mask, goggles, gloves. Remove PPE in this order: gloves, gown/suit, goggles, mask. Please note that during and after use the external surfaces of protective equipment are considered potentially contaminated; remove the mask touching only the tapes or ties, discard it safely as biohazard waste, and then immediately disinfect your hands.  Never touch your eyes, nose, mouth or face, with potentially contaminated, unclean or gloved hands: you risk infecting yourself. Practise scrupulous hand hygiene, if your hands are not visibly dirty you may use alcohol-based hand rub.
